I hate you...

Just kidding. jajaja.

If I play for an hour straight my phone goes from 100% to 0%, battery calibrated, undervolted, no data, no location and whatsnot. Maybe my battery is faulty, I don't know. I never had great battery life with this phone anyway :p
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
Hmm, I have an idea, can you attach your batterystats.bin? I am thinking about replacing mine with yours and hoping that would help.... Most likely wouldn't but I like keeping myself busy.

[Captivate Android Development] Mr.AdAbsurdum:
I've never had to flash boot loaders before but I'm pretty confident I could pull it off as I've been flashing ROMs for the past year but can someone give me some insight as to how to flash this? I am on the latest version of MIUI with 2.1/2.2 bootloaders.

Would flashing to a stock gingerbread ROM or just flashing the bootloaders with miui allow me to flash the alpha 7 zip on top? Or is stock gingerbread/whatever method is safest the best route to go?
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
First... you don't want to flash Alpha 7, I would flash Beta 2. You should follow the OP for flashing instructions. You can flash ontop of any ROM with any bootloaders. I flashed ontop of Serendipity 6.4 with 2.2 bootloaders.

If you have any questions, I will try to help you.
[Captivate Android Development] rfound:
So, this ROM is still kicking butt for me. Runs super smooth and almost everything works.

Fastest Captivate experience so far, by far.

That being said, I have searched and haven't been able to figure out how to get apps to show up as compatable on the market. Probably 50% show incompatible, including Google Plus (which is obviously compatible)... Any fixes out there?

Thanks,

ray
[Captivate Android Development] Mr.AdAbsurdum:
Thank you so much, I just heard about this because I've had an unopened HP Touchoad since like August and I decided to see if any ports were available, that led me to cyanogenmod7, then to 9 which of course led me here, I was just on pins and needles cuz there seems to be no definitive answer for which bootloaders to use. Its a huge relief man thanks for the help

We need to get a lib from the Nexus S when the ICS source drops for it. until then, don't expect anything spectacular to happen.

Try changing the dpi setting in build prop file to 240 that's what fixed it for me
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
Your welcome, glad I could help! :D
[Captivate Android Development] cllinna:
I flashed the newer beta2.zip with the fugumod kernel and the market is compatible now. It may have to do with the fact that the dpi is set to 240 by default with the new beta2.zip, but that I am not sure about. all i know is it works for me now. The only downfall is that Maps doesn't work. I had to unzip the old rom on my computer, go into the system file and grab the maps.apk, put it on my phone and install. Now maps works fine. May not be th emost recent version, but i still have it if needed.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
The new Beta 2 developer fixed the market download problem, change dpi to be auto-240, and had to remove several google apps to get the market working [maps, google+, earth, and a couple of others], all of those apps you can download from the market. There is a post about what was changed in a thread, but I don't remember where I read it.
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
So I'm confused. Will the new beta 2 allow me to install Maps 6.0?
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
I am not sure, I have not tried. I will try and report back.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
So that is a negative on new Beta 2 and downloading maps.

Sent from my Samsung Captivate [Android 4.0.1 Ice Cream Sandwich Beta 2] using the XDA app.
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
Unfortunate but expected. Hopefully Beta 3 just comes with 6.0 installed. I'm still using Beta 1 though. Not too sure I want to install Beta 2.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
hmmm, I am running Beta 2 right now and I was able to install Maps from the market.

I wonder if I was able to install since I modified my build.prop to match a lot of what the teamsamsung put into theirs so mine will read off SGH-I897 instead of I9000.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
Beta 2 is a lot better than one, lot of fixes. Unless you absolutely need/use maps, I would switch.

That maybe... for me, I don't mind not having it as I don't us it anyways. I thought the kernel is what identified the phone i897 vs i9000?
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Don't really use maps either, I was just curious since I modded the build.prop.

I am using the I897 kernel but the build.prop reads

hmmmm having a problem with wifi. on open network like while im at school it connects to the network but no internet connectivity(school has no filters or website blockers) and im standing right under a wifi modem. secured networks like at home it works fine. laptop connects fine to same open networks fine. at home the wifi bars turn blue, open networks it stays grayed out. never had problems with GB ROMs. and i really liking this ICS so far with the exception of not getting data flowing from open networks
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
I have a problem at school too. I can connect to the router, but the login page that launches for my user id never comes up so I cannot browse the web. No problem when I am at home or anyone else house, just at places that have their own site for login after connecting.
[Captivate Android Development] VanThePimpMan:
I had mentioned this problem earlier in the thread and got no response. I have this too and it really bugs me, close to the point where I may flash to MIUI. I don't have very good reception at school so WiFi is needed. I tried messing with the DNS to see if that was problem. It didn't fix it, and I re flashed the modem and ROM but can't test it until I go to class again. Furthermore doing a google search turns up absolutely no results, or something related with changing router settings, which I obviously cannot do on the school network.
[Captivate Android Development] Mr.AdAbsurdum:
I had that problem early on in miui, basic fixes would be reflash kernel, or try new modem, i think the stock modem is jk4 which ive been using for a looong time as it works really well for me but try using different modems seeing which ones work if not then maybe a fresh start may help, i havent experienced any problems with the wifi or connectivity but maybe thats lucky

I had that problem with miui a while back, tried flashing multiple modems, toggle airplane mode on and off a few times, rebooted with ariplane mode on, im not sure if any worked but they were all suggested, ultimately i just went back to stock eclair and imediately back to miui, if it helps ive flashed from cm7, serendipity, firefly, and miui on different phones(all captivates, dcoming from miui and serendipity has been the smoothest and yielded me the least hiccups). The op also states if you have problems with wifi or connectivity to flash the jvt modem and see if it works, if all else fails a fresh start when possible seems like the best bet

I didn't have to, just deleted one on my phone and installed latest from the market

my ICSSGS experience - day one

Thank you so much! :)

I just heard about ICSSGS because I've been on Cognition 5.2, and once they stopped development I kind of ignored the forum.

So anyway, I put Beta2 on my phone yesterday evening using CWM.

I didn't copy the Kernel to the phone initially, as I was following a youtube tutorial instead of the instructions in this thread, but it seemed to work fine.

My process was:

Copied the Beta2.zip to the phone and restarted CWM.

Reset to Factory

Clear Cache

Install Beta 2 Zip

It rebooted into CWM (that selects w/power, not home)

repeat above

Phone started up in ICS

Copied Fugumod_Captivate_Kernel_BETA2.zip to phone

shut down and restart in CWM with 3-button combo.

Install Kernal Zip

Phone started in ICS again.

Turn on WiFi.

Go to Market and get TiBu

Restore Amazon from TiBu

Then begin to restore whatever I wanted from TiBu.

That's where I began to have problems. :eek:

Some apps restore just fine, others make TiBu hang and only a shutdown and restart will let me close it out.

Then after about the 3-5 restarts, ICS won't load, and the phone hangs on the kaleidoscopic splash screen.

I can 3-button into CWM.

Tried clearing cache - nothing

Tried re-installing the kernel - nada

If I re-flash with Beta 2 it does restart. But this isn't right. :confused:

I know this is a beta, and I'm not expecting someone to "fix" this or anything, just wanted to report what my experience is so far.

Of course, if anyone has any suggestions on what I may have done wrong, I'm more than willing to listen ;)
[Captivate Android Development] LTD36:
For those with signal problems, try flashing a JVT modem first, I had the similar issue and it was working fine after flashing a JVT modem. If that fails, go to CWM, wipe data / factory reset, then wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache. Then flash Beta 2 twice and then a third time while in CWM (isn't always necessary, but always works for me) from then on you should be set. After you reboot, go back into CWM and flash the Kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
did you have any tweaks(scripts on the phone) if you did you may have to go back and make sure they are deleted I forgot to delete mine and had to eventually reformat the sd card in cwm in order to completely wipe the phone and then re-installed and have no issues
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
No offense, but this is why you read/follow the OP... Here is what you probably/need to do:

Odin back to stock

Boot into CWM

Flash Beta 2 kernel

Flash Beta 2 ROM

Boot system[it will most likely bootloop due to CWM difference]

Pull battery and reboot into CWM

If it doesn't bootloop, boot back into CWM

Flash Beta 2 ROM again

Flash Beta 2 kernel again

Boot up system and DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE FOR 10 MINUTES, let it rest

After 10 minutes or so, then you can play/restore whatever you want

You need to follow these instructions to the T for this to work properly. Hope this helps! :D
[Captivate Android Development] goabunny:
I am on Beta 2 and noticed this issue from last couple of days. When I try to browse the internet or use an app that connects to the internet while on the phone call, it disconnects the call. Basically, I am not able to surf and talk at the same time. Not sure if this is related to the modem (JL2) I am using.

Please let me know if anybody else noticed this issue.
[Captivate Android Development] Toddyn:
I'm running ICS_4.0.1_r1-Beta1-i9000.zip and CaptivateKernel-B1-Update. So far, this is what I noticed:

1) android.proccess.media always crashes when i connect the usb cable

2) Android OS usage is always between 29% and 40%, but that number goes to 20% and below when I am connected to Wi-fi

I am wondering if flashing Fugumod_Captivate_Kernel_BETA2.zip	would fix these issues, or if I would have to reflash the ROM also.

Thank you in advance
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
flash goodoane's beta 2,flash beta 2 kernel you will just have to re-install maps

and you can flash whatever GB modem you like
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
You can not flash beta 2 kernel without flashing beta 2 ROM, if you do, then lots of things will be messed up. I have beta 2 flashed on my phone [and have for days], and I do not have either of these issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Toddyn:
i copied the wrong rom file name, its not beta1 its beta2!
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
Good deal, just make sure the kernel and ROM match. And the new Beta 2 on Google gode page does fix a lot of things, but you do lose some Google apps [that you can get off of the market]. Also, the Beta 2 kernel has better battery life and voodoo in it, so yeah, it helps a lot too.

[Captivate Android Development] DemonWav:
Might take a while for the battery to even out back to normal for you, but you are getting 16 hours on normal use so don't complain :p Seriously, it could be a hundred different things. Battery life in general for most people is pretty good on this rom, so just try to let the phone work itself out. If that doesn't work, wiping battery stats and restarting the battery calibration might help.
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
My battery today died in under 11 hours not even really using it. Strangely enough the Android OS was at like 70% and it was on keep awake for over 8 hours. Not sure what caused it.

Im certainly not complaining. I havent gotten this good battery life ever. I was just curious if there was something i was over looking. I download battery calibration. Is there a better more effective way or is that sufficient?

That should be fine, as long as it removes /data/system/batterystats.bin. AFAIK the app doesn't tell you to reboot, but i definitely recommend it.

I don't think it does. Or at least I couldn't get it to work with the traditional method. And vol buttons do nothing for zoom. So, pretty sure it doesn't. If you find a way though, please share! ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Psychemage:
If it makes you feel better, I've got both of those issues. To install from Cog 5 I used Odin to stock 2.1 (it's what I had on hand), flashed cwm, wiped everything (if there was an option to delete it in cwm, I did), copied over the ROM and kernel, and followed the OP. Still got problems. I'd suggest holding off reflashing until the next update.
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
What modems are you guys running? People are saying I sound like a lot of static on KK2 and KK4.

I believe you need to use a i9000 based cm7/miui modem not i897. I get terrible sound with any i897 based modem

On a side note...

Ever since updating Twitter yesterday to their new release, whenever I click on the widget to send a tweet, the screen for writing wont auto-rotate. Not sure if it has anything to do with the ROM [doubt it] or if it is just the new Twitter update itself.
[Captivate Android Development] Rabidaries:
I followed the flashing steps and all went smoothly. Ran really smoothly for a couple days then started having problems. Like the browser started force closing and not working, been having the market issue of most apps trying to download said they are not compatable with the phone, then any screen but the home screen (settings, YouTube etc) would be in landscape mode when phone is in portrait and not switch, then couldn't make calls because it said please shut off airplane mode tho airplane mode was off, and I think lastly the phone didn't have any ringtones but silent and couldn't get the phone out of silent mode and the speaker wasn't working so no one could hear me.

So this was a mouthful but wanted to report. Each of these issues were after a full wipe/calvik/factory etc and reflash. Each flash seems to bring a different surprise! Lol
[Captivate Android Development] rfound:
Well, I am still loving ICS and the snappiness of this phone has never been better.

I am getting a few issues:

Main Issue:

The Market has apparently broken completely. Every App I try to download just hangs at "downloading" forever.

Adjusting pixel Density (DPI setting) did seem to correct my earlier issue before of apps being marked "incompatible".

Curiosity:

Google Current: I installed the APK directly (no market) and man that hosed everything. It made all of my google core apps go bonkers and crash. Nothing worked, I was about to wipe and re-flash when I remembered I had installed it. Just a beware to others I guess.

Minor issues:

the "Media" process crashes when connected to a computer. I could care less about this: I rarely need to connect to a PC. I think everyone is having a similar issue.

Battery life is so-so. Seemed decent at first, then terrible. Might be related to market problem. I'm avoiding the market until I find a fix for it.

Thanks again for all the hard work on this ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Rabidaries:
I had the same problem with market just sitting in downloading while trying to download apps and never downloading. I reflashed and seems to be working fine now.
[Captivate Android Development] rfound:
Did you do a data wipe/flash? I reflashed last night with the same B2 + B1-Update Kernel, but I wiped cache/Davlik only, didn't wipe data (I really don't want to have to reinstall everything, setup accounts, etc...)

Amazon Appstore installs work fine. :)
